Fabien,

We can do it only when GPS info will be stored into Database. Actually, digiKam only use the metadata from file.

For performance reasons, dupplicate some importants metadata to database is mandatory. There is already a file in B.K.O about this subject.

When i said dupplicate metadata to DB, i want mean only the _most_ important for photographer like apperture, exposure time, camera model, camera maker, etc. and of course GPS.

This job is planed later than 0.9.0 issue, because we won't touch the datatbase structure for this release to preserve compatibilty with 0.8.0. Also, there are already a lot of changes in digiKAm with 0.9.0. Cumulate to many changes is dangerous.

But, i love the GPS camera stuff (:=)))
